ExecuJet MRO Belgium Completes Falcon 7X Project

ExecuJet MRO Services Belgium announced the completion of an extensive project on a Dassault Falcon 7X on June 11, 2026. The milestone highlights the growing heavy maintenance and modification capabilities at the Dassault Aviation subsidiary’s European facility.

While the specific scope of the newly completed Falcon 7X project was not detailed in the company’s initial release, the completion follows a steady expansion of the facility’s service portfolio for the Dassault Falcon fleet. The Kortrijk-Wevelgem International Airport (KJK) heavy maintenance center has steadily increased its throughput since completing its first C-check on a Falcon 7X in May 2025.

Expanding Falcon maintenance capabilities

The recent project completion builds upon significant regulatory approvals secured earlier in the year. In January 2026, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted the Belgium-based provider approval to perform line maintenance, Aircraft on Ground (AOG) support, and base maintenance on US-registered business aircraft.

This regulatory approval authorized the facility to conduct base maintenance up to C-checks on several aircraft types. The approved list includes the Falcon 7X, Falcon 8X, Falcon 900EX EASy/DX/LX, and Falcon 2000EX EASy/DX. The certification allows the European facility to service N-registered aircraft operating internationally.

Connectivity and retrofit growth

Beyond heavy maintenance, ExecuJet MRO Services Belgium has expanded its avionics and cabin connectivity retrofit operations. In December 2025, the facility completed the first Starlink connectivity system installation on a Dassault Falcon 8X.

The installation was performed under a supplemental type certificate developed by Dassault Falcon Jet. SpaceX appointed the company as an authorized Starlink dealer, granting the facility authorization to conduct identical retrofits on the Falcon 7X platform.

AirPro News analysis

We view the steady cadence of Falcon 7X and 8X milestones at the Belgium facility as a direct result of Dassault Aviation’s strategy to internalize and expand its European aftermarket support. By securing FAA Part 145 approval earlier in 2026, ExecuJet MRO Services Belgium positioned itself to capture maintenance events from North American operators flying into Europe. The ability to combine heavy C-checks with high-demand upgrades like Starlink connectivity makes the Kortrijk-Wevelgem site a highly competitive option for transatlantic Falcon operators requiring scheduled downtime.
